Unit of Minimally Invasive Surgery/ Keyhole Surgery - Minimally Invasive Surgery / Keyhole Surgery Unit at Dharamshila Narayana Superspeciality Hospital have been pioneers in the field of laparoscopic surgery. Over the past two decades, the range of abdominal surgical procedures that can be performed with minimally invasive (or laparoscopic) techniques has expanded enormously. Now, a growing amount of cancer surgery can also be carried out safely, quickly, and efficiently through a number of small incisions. Dharamshila Narayana Superspeciality Hospital’s Oncology team applies these cutting edge techniques while never compromising the principles of cancer surgery.

Minimally Invasive Surgery / Keyhole Surgery Unit at Dharamshila Narayana Superspeciality Hospital offer minimally invasive surgery for cancer of the esophagus, uterus, stomach, liver, pancreas, colon and rectum, and peritoneal malignancies. There are a number of advantages to the patient with laparoscopic surgery versus the more common, open procedure. Pain and blood loss are reduced due to smaller incisions, recovery times are shorter, quicker return to normal activities and less damage to surrounding healthy tissue. The key element in laparoscopic surgery is the use of a laparoscope, a long fiber optic cable system which allows viewing of the affected area by snaking the cable from a more distant, but more easily accessible location.
